Fasting Center is a fasting timer and tracker for intermittent and extended fasting. Start a fast, watch the ring fill, see which stage your body is in, and keep your numbers in one place. Fast your way - Plans from 12:12 to 23:1 (OMAD), extended fasts of 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours, an open fast with no end, or a specific end time - A live ring that shows time elapsed, time left or percent. Tap the ring to switch - Change the start or end time whenever you need to - Milestone notifications and a reminder before your fast ends - A celebration when you finish, with your mood, a note and a picture of your fast to share Know what is happening - 17 fasting stages, from digestion to refeeding, and what each one means - Tips that make fasting easier - The scientific sources behind the stages and the calculators - Coach: ask about your own fasts, weight and how you feel, and get answers from your data. Sign-in required, not medical advice Log what matters - Weight, body fat, waist, ketones, blood glucose and blood pressure - Energy, hunger, motivation and anxiety on a scale of 1 to 10 - Calories, water, sodium, potassium and magnesium - Daily notes, and past fasts you add by hand - Apple Health: read weight, body fat, steps, heart rate and glucose, and write weight and body fat back See your patterns - A fasting calendar, charts of your fasting hours, recent fasts and streaks - Trends for your measurements and how you feel, and your BMI - Patterns found in your own data, such as when you feel hungriest Calculators - Extended fasting: estimate the weight you lose in a fast of 1 to 40 days, split into fat, protein, water and gut contents, with a refeeding guide - Intermittent fasting and calorie deficit: set a goal weight or daily calories and see a day-by-day projection Everywhere you look - Home screen widgets, a Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and an Apple Watch app with complications - Dark mode, accent colors, and pounds, kilograms or stones - Seventeen languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Indonesian, Urdu, Bengali and Simplified Chinese - Import fasts from Easy Fast or Zero, and export your data to Excel - Use it without an account, or sign in with email, Google or Apple to sync between your devices Important Fasting Center is for general wellness and education. It is not medical advice. Extended fasting is not right for everyone, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, underweight, or have a medical condition such as diabetes or a history of eating disorders. Talk to your doctor before you start. Weight and body composition projections are estimates, not predictions.
Climb

Climb is an intermittent fasting tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch. IT CAN'T LOSE YOUR FAST Most fasting apps store how long you've been going and count upwards. That is why they lose fasts after a restart, a reboot, or a daylight-saving change — the most common complaint in the category. Climb never stores elapsed time. It records the instant you started and works everything out from the current time whenever you look. There is no running total to drift, so there is nothing to lose. Change timezone mid-fast and the number stays right. A LADDER, NOT A RING Seven stages, marked by how long you have been fasting, with the colour moving amber to green to blue as you climb. The timings are typical ones drawn from research on averages — not measurements of you. WHERE YOU ALREADY LOOK • A Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Home Screen widgets • An Apple Watch app, and complications for four watch face families All of them keep counting while the app is closed. EDIT ANYTHING • Start a fast late and move the start time back • Log one you forgot to record • Extend a goal mid-fast • End one by mistake and undo it • Export your whole history, and import it back NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No account. No sign-in. No analytics. No advertising identifiers. No third-party SDKs. Climb makes no network requests at all — there is no server for your data to reach even in principle. Your fasts live on your device and nowhere else. Climb is a tracker, not medical advice. Talk to a doctor before changing how you eat — particularly if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, diabetic, taking medication, or have a history of disordered eating.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Fasting Center at 4 against Climb's 2. Fasting Center also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
